Race Track

The ingenuity of kids never ceases to amaze and excite me. Recently we had the cars out with the blocks. "O" saw a race car among the vehicles and decided to build a race track.

He finished a short track and drove the car through it. Then he decided that a longer track was needed.

Just look at that track. He continued the outer wall and the inner wall became the center. Usually when I see this type of construction, the kids continue both walls around in a circular configuration. I love how the inner/middle wall functions for both sides of the track. Good thinking!

I love teaching preschoolers and children. I have been working with kids for 30 years. I've been a teacher, preschool center director, volunteer, writer and editor, and workshop leader. Now I'm exploring what's next in my life as an educator.
